I will use this less and less for pervert-picture-posting and more like a private on-line journal so this will disappear from your eyes soon I reckon'...

I still haven't booked my flight to Canada yet. After talking about doing it for 3 years, I'm finally moving in March/April.Fair play to my mates for tolerating listening to me talk about it for so long.My visa came through yesterday so I'm pretty chuffed to say the least.

I've just turned 23 and have been working in music for 5 years.I've had enough basically.

Currently in London for a week or so.I slept in on Saturday morning and woke up at 7am - my flight was already in the air at that time. Dang.Cost me 100 bills for a flight the next day. That was scheduled to leave at 8am and wouldn't you know it, I awoke at 7am. If I hadn't have online checked-in then I would have missed two flights in a row..........in 24 hours.What the fuck is wrong with me sometimes?

I've only smoked like 6 ciggies in 5 days or something.My body aches from doing too many stomach crunches the past month.I've been hitting on one of my best friend's (Nikki) a lot lately.She has been with her boy about 2 years or something and lives with him but none of this seems to have any relevance with me.Does this make me a little shit?I'm only doing it because she is indulging in it and is very much reciprocating.

Pitchfork had a post about the Handsome Furs earlier today...There was nothing enticing or exciting about the post other than the picture which came with it...

It's been a long time since I shared a lustful picture of a Canadian girl I fancy the arse off...Unfortunately, there is no other amateur-porn(ish) pictures of Alexei Perry anywhere else on the net...So here is another one that I like...If only that skinny fucker wasn't hanging out of her in it, it'd be almost perfect.

I'll still go see Dan & co. in ALT in a couple of weeks though.For realz...

Bless me blog, for I have sinned...It's been like 10 months since my last post and these are my sins...

I have no idea why I have even started writing on this again...I think I am in a slump - this city is knocking the shit out of me on a daily basis...For the past while, I was such a miserable little bollox...But when I turned 23 last week - I felt incredible...I do believe that 23 might just be the spiritual age I was after...Now I just need to find my spiritual home where I get to fuck my spiritual girl and I'll be all set...

But, for all the lovely spiritualness going on in my weird little head, I'm still feeling a bit odd...I've just spent the past few minutes trying to convince my friend Katy that she should get my name tattooed around her right nipple...

By the way, new Animal Collective record came into the office today and it is fucking awesome!

No, I am not back blogging...I am not suited to that game anymore...The blog was becoming tedious and somewhat wanton...Besides, I was looking more and more like a pervert...Which I like to hide from most people until they get to know me...Then I unleash the hardcore pervert from within...It's a delicate act which I have mastered...

Anyway. This post is just to inform you that a supergroup (I hate that term) to end all supergroups (ouch) has formed...Jaguar Love is going to be the greatest band to come out of the States since Pretty Girls Make Graves & The Blood Brothers...Ironically enough, this three-piece is made up of ex-member from both sets of bands.Johnny Whitney and Cody Votolato from The Blood Brothers & Jason Clark from Pretty Girls Make Graves. Everyone's favourite Indie Matador Records snapped them up and will be releasing their debut album...2 demo songs have re-appeared on their Myspace and they rock so hard...Expect the debut to fall this Summer...

Most people will describe it as arty/punky/hardcore etc...I'd say it's more like music to fuck to...

Marvin Gaye is music to make love to (or so they say)...Jaguar Love is music to fuck hardcore to (or so I say)...

I hate how lazy folk can get when it comes to music...I know very few people who take the initiative and go searching for new artists themselves...A friend of mine said this to me yesterday:

"Signing is so passé, 20th century thinking, Majors are starting to sink,its all about Independence now, bring on the Free State...."

That sentence struck a mighty chord with me (apologies for the musical cliché)...

There is so many artists out their who don't have a label or who are signed to a tiny DIY label run by one person from their bedroom...This (for me) is what music is about...Dedication on a small scale run by die-hard fans and enthusiasts...Unfortunately though, at the minute music is full of tired legs...

With this all falling out of my brain right now because it has been going on for far too long...I will soon start to post about bands you (hopefully) do not know... And who you can support by going to a show...Buying a tee-shirt...Purchasing a hand-made 7"...Or even just dropping them a mail on their website/myspace and telling them that you like their music...

I don't want this to come across as being biblical but we live in a time and an age where we can be and do anything we want...So why are we constantly being negative about how music is run...?Why don't we take the initiative and start changing things ourselves?It doesn't cost a lot of money to get 100 7" vinyls pressed... Why not approach an unsigned artist whom you like and offer to release a single for them?
